First Halal Makeup Launched

Sometimes it seems like the UK gets all of the good beauty products first. Now, in another groundbreaking beauty revelation from across the pond, the world’s first halal makeup has launched.

You may not realize it, but a number of your favourite beauty items use pig by-products and alcohol to keep you pretty. These are two things banned under Islamic law. Samina Akhter, who is a Muslim, saw this problem and decided to create a makeup line that she could use. Now after years of testing, the Samina Pure Make-up is available. It’s the first British halal makeup on the market.

The Samina Pure Make-up includes foundation, blush, eyeshadow and lipsticks free from alcohol and pig by-products. They are currently testing halal mascara. Instead of using these products the makeup is made from plants, oils and minerals.
